Talk about coaching malpractice. Has that ever happened in the history of college football before? Absolutely pathetic coaching the last two years.

That's why I always scratch my head when we defer when winning the coin toss. First shovel of dirt.Sure seems like we start a lot of games unprepared for what the opponent is running. Maybe not as much unprepared as not focused and ready to execute.
Because we USUALLY go 3 and Out against the best teams on our opening drive. Plus, by getting the ball to start the 2nd half, you have the opportunity to STEAL a possession against your opponent. And BOY do we need that EVERY game!!That's why I always scratch my head when we defer when winning the coin toss. First shovel of dirt.
As a double digit underdog I think you take the ball and try to gain some momentum. UGA and Bama both took the ball and scored easily. You kind of knew what kind of day it was going to be and hadn't even touched the ball. At least taking the ball you have a chance to get the lead and some momentum. Stoops is ultra conservative though and I expected him not to want to play offense..Because we USUALLY go 3 and Out against the best teams on our opening drive.

If our offense was reliable to score on ANY drive, taking the ball first COULD be an option. But this team doesn't have that.
What happened when we got the ball first after the Tide scored on their opening drive?? We went 3 and out. Then after Bama scored on their second possession, we fumble it on 1st down to give them ANOTHER TD!!As a double digit underdog I think you take the ball and try to gain some momentum.

We have done quite well this year on our first drive scoring 6 times. It’s the rest of the game we can’t move the ballBecause we USUALLY go 3 and Out against the best teams on our opening drive.
